I am trying to configure sendmail on a Linux Server, so that localhost is not mentioned in the email headers.
I've set the server hostname in /etc/sysconfig/network, and edited the line
Djmydomain.com in my sendmail.cf file (and restarted everything).
But still the email headers have this:
Received: by x.x.x.x with SMTP id xxx;

I don't think the references to localhost.localdomain and localhost should be there - am concerned about the domain getting blacklisted etc.
Can anyone tell me how to remove them?
Thanks!
Fix Fully Qualified Host Name reported by the command below
hostname --fqdn
It is OS/Distribution specific.
OR
Force sendmail use another "this host" name as described in cf/README file

I am really confused. I have tested my mail server with mail-tester.com, I got 10/10 but Gmail still puts my emails into spam folder.
I have PTR, DKIM and SPF records, all valid.
The mailserver hostname is: domain.tld

I have valid SSL certification by letsencrypt, I think everything should be fine, but its not. Does anyone has experience in this case? Did I miss something?

Check your filters. You may have some filters to move your mails to Spam Folder. You can learn about filters here - https://support.google.com/mail/answer/6579?hl=en
I have configured DKIM, SPF and DMARC correct and from the email headers it seems to be working fine but the emails I sent from my SMTP server are marked as spam. Here is my email headers

Any idea on fixing the problem?
Your ip reputation is neutral (which is good but can be improved)
http://www.senderbase.org/lookup/?search_string=191.101.230.42
As long as all those settings are configured correct, then you should use this form from Microsoft!

i'm using unmanaged VPS from Contabo, i don't know why my emails are going to Spam folder, i checked many articles, i set SPF record but the same problem, any idea?

I'm having the same problem. Note that your SPF is not configured or this line wouldn't appear
Received-SPF: neutral (google.com: 79.143.185.30 is neither permitted nor denied by best guess record for domain of contact#printdz.com) client-ip=79.143.185.30;
To confirm that your SPF is not ok, go here http://www.kitterman.com/spf/validate.html
The solution would be asking Contabo to fix your DNS record regarding SPF.
My mails that I send from my vps keeps going to the spam folder of Google mail (gmail), only gmail, all other receivers get the mail!
I've been struggling with the following problem for a couple of hours now.
First of all the mail went straight to the spam, with a soft fail on the SPF records. After some googling and adjusting the dns and everything is correct on all the tests I do on internet.
What am I doing wrong, see the email headers below:

Hi
Verstuurd vanaf mijn iPhone
I've been struggling to figure out why this is happening, but my emails are being marked as spam by Gmail and Hotmail (they work in Yahoo.)
SPF, DKIM, rDNS, and sender-id all pass. What's weirder is I've send the EXACT same email with its exact contents from my dev server and Gmail accepts it as not spam even though every one of those checks which passes in production fails in dev. Hotmail still marks it as spam though.
Any idea what could be going on? Here is an example header from Gmail (with IPs and domains changed for privacy):

The other guy doesn't know what he's talking about and just guessing.
'Received: (from root#localhost)' is your problem. That needs to reflect the from email...
You problem is:
domain: mydomain.com
ip: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
and root#localhost too
You need change informations in your mail client!
I have the exact same problem. In my case, I have configured my mail client correctly. I have one main domain (mydomain.com), my mail server also supports another domain (mydomain2.com) using virtual_domains. However, the emails for (mydomain2.com) always end up in Spam in Gmail. The mail-tester score for mydomain2.com is 9.7/10. Here is the original header from Gmail (i have replaced IP and email address with example ips)
